Ryzen 7 2700U vs Core i7-4850HQ comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-4850HQ performs better than the Ryzen 7 2700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 2700U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-4850HQ has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 2700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 2700U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 2700U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4850HQ CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
